The song that helps me make Roar happen is Dark Horse. I’m capable of anything and I dare to do a lot of things just like a dark horse. There may be no going back, but I’m always moving forward.

Roar is the song that makes me Roar lol. Seriously, I used to be shy but now I’m not and I can ROAR!

The song that helps me “Make Roar Happen” is “Fingerprints.” I think the chorus accurately captures exactly what “make roar happen” is all about and how I look at life. Our fingerprints don’t fade from the lives we touch. And this song reminds me to always be the best possible version of yourself because you never truly know what you leave behind.

My song is “Roar”! Because I love the song,and it’s message,being strong in the face of adversity! No one should ever be held down for being themselves!

I adore Ms. Katy Perry and aspire to have her positive traits in the future as she is such a genuine inspiration and actually practices what she preaches through her music which leads such a powerful example. The song that effortlessly “Makes Roar happen” for me is the obvious, “Roar”. It gets the adreniline pumping and makes me feel like such an unstoppable force. I relate to every single lyric of this song so very deeply. “I went from zero, to my own hero” specifically stands out to me. I previously went through severe bullying at school which led me to fall into depression, over time I re-gained my strength from the shy, broken and insecure girl I once was, I managed to inspire myself make a comeback stronger than ever, which is the overal message of the song. “I got the eye of the tiger, a fighter, dancing through the fire” meaning to be strong in the midst of caos as it’ll pass if you fight it hard enough. “Cause I am a champion and you’re gonna hear me roar”. LOVE it.

after giving it much thought, the song i chose is “firework”, it may be hard at times to raise our voices in a noisy world and make a statement but katy perry has taught us all that we are all original and as we open one door, the next door opens, this can lead to an infinite amout of possibilities and differences we can make in this world! stand out and show the world that you really are a firework, and thats how we can Make Roar Happen!

Jessica Torres

Another song that “Makes Roar happen” for me would be “Firework”. I can never watch the music video without tears forming in my eyes from it’s beautiful message. It displays various situations from people, from an insecure girl to a cancer patient in the hospital, slowly realizes the spark within them and letting it shine through by making a choice to embrace their flaws. “You don’t have to feel like a wasted space, You’re original, cannot be replaced. If you only knew what the future holds, After a hurricane comes a rainbow.” Provides me with so much hope. It speaks volumes.

Another song by Katy Perry that helps both myself and others to make the world a better place is “Roar. were taught to get back up after people push us down, not only do we get back up, but we come back as a fighter and show the world what we can really do and how we can make a difference!

OMG!! Katy Perry is without a doubt my absolute favorite singer<3!!! I love all of her songs and find them all very inspirational, however, "Roar" spoke to me the most because I have always had self confidence issues, especially when it came to speaking up for myself. I have always been a people pleaser and I would listen to people too much and let them put me down instead of standing up for myself and proving them wrong. This song really helped inspire me to start doing that, Thank you Katy Perry for the vote of confidence<3!!! And thank you SO SO SOOOOO VERY MUCH celebuzz for the AMAZING and kind and generous giveaway :)!!!! I am forever a huge fan:)

Jessica Torres

Yet another song that “Makes Roar Happen” for me is “Part Of Me”. Though this song is really about a break-up making you stronger, it can be related to anything at all, really. It takes the message to a whole new level. It could be about anyone at all in your life who has attempted to break you, harm you, see you suffer, make you cry, bully you, make you feel less than … to show them that no matter what, you won’t allow anything in the world to keep you down, it’ll all only make you better in every from. The main perfect message being “I don’t need you, because guess what? I’ve got myself” … “This is the part of me that you’re never gonna ever take away from me” .

Jessica Torres

Another song that “Makes Roar Happen” would be “Fingerprints” which refers to false stereotypes and the basic assumptions people make when they say you’ll never amount to anything or that you don’t have what it takes and proving them wrong. It’s about rising above the negative and creating something far more positive with all of that. That nothing can stop you from living your life except for you, you’re in control. “I wanna break the mold, I wanna break the stereotype, Fist in the air I’m not going down with out a fight. It’s my life and I’m not sitting on the sidelines watching”.
It pass me by

Jessica Torres

“Dark Horse” def “Makes Roar Happen” as well with it’s fierece and edgy vibe that you can’t ever resist full on jamming out to. I think it shows that the female is completely in charge and dominent, she knows what she wants and knows what she needs and won’t settle for anything less than the absolute best.
(This is the last one, I promise! I just really adore Katy Perry’s wonderful everything and have wanted an acoustic guitar for a lifetime but could never afford it, so to have something that combines my two loves would mean beyond the world to me, thanks for the opportunity!)

Christopher Rodriguez

“Firework” is definitely the song that “makes roar happen”. It’s extremely inspirational and gets you going even when you’re feeling down with lyrics like “Come on show them what you’re worth”. It’s all about self-empowerment during a time where a lot of people, especially kids are looking for a lift in their self-esteem.

Tierney McClary

I love Katy Perry and my cousin looks just like her. What song “Makes Roar Happen” – California Gurls – the song makes me smile. It makes me want to dance and it gives me the feeling that I can change the world!

Roar came out as I was battling cervical cancer and it gave me energy when I had none. Gave me that extra push i needed

k4typerry

I would say Part Of Me.

mw0990

I love all of Katy Perry’s songs and find them inspiring. One that really touched me was The One That Got Away. I simply couldn’t get it out of my head. And it’s my favorite song to this very day.

mw0990

Another song of hers that inspires me is Part of Me

mw0990

I love her song Teenage Dream!!!

flapfkp

Roar is a song that no matter what seems to give that little extra spark of energy. I’ve had to face lots of personal adversity throughout my various educational endeavors, and I finally found a song that can get me by. I attribute Roar as a motivation for many of my school achievements. Looking back, I’m not sure how I’d be in the academic position I am without the song.

mw0990

Her song Birthday is the BOMB.com!!!!

mw0990

Her song Roar brings me lots of inspiration for writing.

“Firework” always gives me an extra spark of inspiration no matter what I’m working on.

katycataudrey

Firework was the first song I discovered by her back in 2010 and inspires me to keep on going when I feel like giving up. It’s the song that has influenced me the most for the past 4 years.

katycataudrey

Unconditionally is Katy’s favorites single off the Prism record and is one of my favorites also. When she came over and took my letter back at my concert when she sang this it reminded me that her love for her Katycats is unconditional, and the song really hits home for me.

katycataudrey

By the Grace of God is a song about getting back up after overcoming a hard part of your life. If Katy could put one foot in front of the other, so could I!

katycataudrey

Roar is a powerful anthem that helps me be strong and #MakeRoarHappen!

katycataudrey

Part of Me is a song that teaches me to be independent and #MakeRoarHappen!
